00:00We will investigate and judge the incident that happened in front of the camera.
00:06No one is safe as long as caught on cam.
00:14Egan caught on cam, a passenger jeep that counter-flowed on the Sumulong Highway, St. Paul, Rizal.
00:22The jeep almost crashed into a motorcycle and SUV before it hit concrete barriers.
00:29With a strong impact, the jeep collided with a truck and collided with a vehicle on the other lane.
00:37According to the authorities, the jeep lost its brakes.
00:40Ten people were injured because of the incident.
00:46Another caught on cam.
00:48Last night at 1 p.m., the jeep lost its brakes.
00:52And another jeep crashed into a vehicle on Recto Avenue, Manila.
00:57Six vehicles were involved in the incident, including a motorcycle that collided with a jeep and a delivery truck.
01:07Ten people were injured, six were taken to the hospital and two are in critical condition.
01:13How can we avoid this incident and what can we do in this situation?
01:19We will answer that with the head of MMDA Special Operations, Gabriel Christian Go.
01:25Good morning.
01:26Good morning, Igan.
01:27And of course, to all of our viewers this morning.
01:30All of these incidents are due to the loss of brakes.
01:35Are all of these included in the jeep of modernization?
01:39I thought it was already modernized.
01:41With the loss of brakes, what are your investigations?
01:46What are your answers?
01:48What are their defenses?
01:50What are the solutions?
01:51Well, first of all, when it comes to road safety,
01:56we can avoid accidents like jeeps.
02:02Although, we don't expect accidents.
02:05But there is the essence of preventive or prevention is better than cure.
02:11So even in vehicles, it is applicable.
02:14With the loss of brakes, we can prevent it.
02:16How?
02:17With the so-called preventive maintenance check-up,
02:21especially for public vehicles,
02:23it is not just one, two, or three people who are driving there.
02:27Sometimes, it's more than ten.
02:29Like in this case, what happened in Antipolo,
02:31more than ten people were driving there.
02:34Which is, we should have this preventive maintenance check-up.
02:38Before going out, right?
02:39Correct.
02:40We should have what we call responsible driver and responsible car ownership.
02:45Those are the arguments.
02:47That's why the frankies are taking revenge.
02:49Sir, in our first video,
02:52so that we can explain it in detail,
02:54that jeep, when it lost its brakes,
02:57it chose to counter-flock
03:00and go against the barrier
03:02compared to the many other disgraces.
03:04When the brakes are gone,
03:06what should it do?
03:07Should it go against the barrier?
03:09Or what else can it do?
03:11What else can it do?
03:12Well, that would be...
03:14like this.
03:15Let's take a look.
03:16We can see that this is the jeep that counter-flocked.
03:18The least or the last thing that we will do
03:21is to counter-flock against other obstructions or other vehicles.
03:25That's right. It's a barrier.
03:26This is a barrier.
03:27But this is the last thing that you should do.
03:29Why?
03:30Because the lives of the passengers in this vehicle are at stake.
03:34What if when you counter-flock against a concrete barrier,
03:36you fall down?
03:37So that is one safety issue that we are looking at.
03:40That's why when it comes to...
03:42especially for public utilities,
03:44this jeep,
03:46it should have a driver's education.
03:49It can be reduced or stopped
03:53not only by counter-flocking.
03:55It can be reduced when it comes to shifting to low gears.
03:58That is one of the lessons when it comes to safety driving.
04:02Especially when the vehicle is manual,
04:04you can shift to low gears.
04:06Yes, you can shift from low to high
04:09until the vehicle slowly stops.
04:11But in this case, we can see that the driver was left with no choice.
04:15He has no choice.
04:16He made a decision.
04:17He made a decision.
04:18When he came here,
04:19he was allowed to enter because this area is already heavily trafficked.
04:23This area is more dangerous.
04:25Because this is a head-on situation.
04:26If the vehicle is counter-flocked,
04:27how many vehicles will be affected?
04:28There are trucks, jeeps, vehicles, or even worse, motorcycles.
04:31So, he had no choice.
04:32He was allowed to enter because it is spacious.
04:34But as we can see in the video,
04:36there is a leeway in this area.
04:39Which leads to the grass area here.
04:42Okay.
04:43So, there is a possibility that if the driver knows to shift to low gear,
04:48he will slowly enter this area.
04:50There is no barrier here as we can see in the video.
04:53If he enters this area,
04:55he could have stopped the car or the jeep without being hit.
04:59So, there is a chance of collision.
05:01Yes, there is a chance of collision.
05:02We will see that in the video.
05:03So, that's one option that we can see how he can stop the vehicle.
05:07Is that a jeep without a handbrake?
05:09Doesn't it have a handbrake?
05:10Yes, it has a handbrake.
05:12But then again, at the end of the day,
05:14it narrows down the maintenance of the vehicles.
05:17Yes.
05:18Especially, those are public vehicles.
05:20Let's move on to the second video.
05:22A jeep that lost its brakes
05:24and hit the parked vehicles at the intersection.
05:27If the area is like that,
05:29the intersection,
05:30and the brakes are gone,
05:31what should be done to reduce the disgrace?
05:35Like that.
05:36Actually, there is a slight difference here in our illustration.
05:40Supposedly, this jeep is here.
05:43The jeep should be here.
05:45The jeep is here,
05:46and the e-bike is here.
05:48So, we can see in the video,
05:50the jeep hit the e-bike,
05:52it hit the middle of the road,
05:55and there is a truck here.
05:57Okay.
05:58The jeep is lucky because there is a truck here.
06:01So when the jeep hit the truck,
06:04it stopped here at the intersection.
06:07It was the one who stopped the jeep.
06:11And we're very glad that this jeep runs slowly.
06:14If not, it would be worse.
06:16We can see in the video,
06:17if this jeep is too steady,
06:19it could have been worse that the jeep did not hit here.
06:22It could have gone straight.
06:24The e-bike might have been hit.
06:26Or worse,
06:27the jeep hit the truck,
06:29and these vehicles are put in danger.
06:32The impact is different, right?
06:33Yes, the impact is different.
06:35But then again,
06:36we are now talking about preventive maintenance.
06:39And also,
06:40there is what we call driver's education.
06:43Because if our driver knows how to shift into low gear,
06:47the damage to the e-bike might be minimized.
06:52We should tighten the...
06:54Before giving a license,
06:56we should go through a strict education.
06:58Well, that's true.
07:00For drivers, there should be a proper driving education.
07:04That's why we have what we call driving schools.
07:07We learn proper road etiquettes,
07:10proper traffic signages,
07:14we learn those.
07:15And of course, don't forget the regular maintenance.
07:18That's true.
07:19It can be done daily, right?
07:20Well, if it is a public vehicle,
07:22you should check it every time you go to the garage.
07:25Brake fluid,
07:26rubber,
07:27because all of that,
07:28it narrows down to the safety of your passengers.
07:30And even for the driver,
07:31he should have enough sleep, right?
07:32That's true.
07:33Thank you very much, Sir Gabriel Christian Go,
07:35Head of our MMDA Special Operations.
07:37Always be careful, fellow passengers.
07:39Accidents or crimes,
07:40we will investigate them
07:42because this is just the beginning.
07:44And one day,
07:45there will be no more blind spots
07:46when it comes to safety.
07:48We will learn that here at Caught on Cam.
07:52I'll be back in a minute.
07:55Caught on Cam.
